预付

One Sears store in Winchester, Virginia, reputedly had fewer than 50 customers using its layaway shelves in December, mainly for clothing and jewellery.

据说，在弗吉尼亚州温切斯特市的一家西尔斯商店，12月份仅有不到50名顾客使用了分期预付，大部分购买的是服装和珠宝。

Tony Gao, who teaches marketing at Northeastern University's business college, says that some retailers never gave up on layaway, although the payment format "is not suited to all retailers, and not all consumers will benefit from it".

在美国东北大学商学院教授市场营销的高涛表示，一些零售商从未放弃过分期预付，尽管这种支付形式"并不适用于所有零售商，也并不是所有的消费者都能从中受益"。

Given its comparatively limited demographic appeal, she says,"layaway has significant limitations as a strategic move to increase sales and increase consumer activity".

她表示，鉴于这种方式所能吸引的年龄段相当有限，"作为提高销售额和消费者热情的战略举措，分期预付有很大的局限性"。

Administering a layaway programme also presents challenges for modern retailers' inventory and sales management systems, Ms Hoffman adds.

霍夫曼补充道，提供分期预付服务也对现代零售商的库存和销售管理系统提出了挑战。

For those readers who are rather too young to be familiar with the idea , a layaway plan allows a buyer to pick a particular piece of merchandise which the shop puts in storage . Over a set period of time , typically one to three months , the buyer makes small payments towards the total cost .

针对那些尚年轻还不熟悉这一概念的读者们，在此先介绍一下分期预付购物计划：顾客挑选一件特殊商品并由商店为其保管；然后在规定的一段时间内，例如一个月到三个月，顾客需支付商品总额的一部分。
